The Coliseum in Monmouthshire

Typical Spoons does what is says on the tin, clean, service good, in fact not a bad one..

It's a 'spoons so you know what you are going to get. A good range of beer and decent service.

Old cinema tastefully done out. In town centre on the pedestrianised section. Breakfasts really good value.

As all spoons. Cheap food and drinks. But saying that nice enough to go for a quick bite and drink. Cleaner and brighter than neighbours ebbw vale. And all on ground level. Parking for few out front but there is a carpark to back of it through streets either side. Or paying carpark but further on down road if your coming passed the town clock

First and last visit here. Have spent the last 24 hours in bed with the worst food poisoning I've ever had. Steer clear.

Smaller spoons with nice layout and usual good value food and drink. Becoming popular again post COVID. Excellent eggs Benedict.

Couldn't go wrong to dine in JD Wetherspoon. I ordered curries chicken jalfrezi. Rich in flavor, satisfying portion.

A Wetherspoons like any other... but they get so busy that there is often only one person behind the bar, so 10 in a queue is not uncommon.

Why oh why can't Weatherspoons get a breakfast to the table HOT 🔥🔥🔥??!!

Very efficient food service even at 1730 on a Friday. Pleasant and efficient staff. Food OK Wetherspoons conventional fare. Very noisy at 1730 on a Friday.

It's got to be one of the best places to eat with such a large selection of food and drink, quality of food is excellent without a doubt would recommend this place to eat any time

Firstly this place is very busy, if you have to ask a member of staff to wipe down a table it is not the end if the world ! My wife and I popped in for lunch, sat at a "clean" table and ordered a Raman noodle in a broth which was a veggie option which was on for January, well this could be served in any restaurant it was that good, nice veg, and a spicy broth which had a kick to it, 2 Raman noodles and 2 pints of real ale and the bill was £17 and a few pennies, you would pay a LOT more for a meal like that elsewhere, i imagine not a lot of people would order it as most pensioners seem to stick with fish and chips and burgers, i would like to add we are both pensioners and so glad we ordered the noodles.

When you go to a Wetherspoons you know what you're going to get. Despite it being market day and very busy, only a short wait for the food.

Lovely food. Really nice staff.. Excellent price even more so with Specials.

Very typical Wetherspoons, good food, fast service and staff who are always helpful.

A solid Wetherspoons. Service was quick and efficient despite it being absolutely rammed. Tables clean and staff were very proactive in doing rounds to remove dishes and glasses that you were finished with. Generally seemed to have a lot more staff than most Wetherspoons pubs - maybe they employed more people for the busy Christmas period. Food was quickly delivered to the table and what exactly what you'd expect: no thrills and good enough for the money - especially given how cheap a decent pint of cider is here.

Fish portions very small but food lovely. Good service and staff very friendly. Nice pub!

THE cctv cameras in toilets pointing in the direction of the urinals is a bit of an alarm .

Very nice. My son and his wife took me there

Great value curry in a decent spacious Wetherspoons at the heart of Abergavenny. Service was prompt and food up to the usual good standard.

The meal I had was tasty; although basic..

Small spoons in a handy location.

Nice pub just off the main drag. Nice seating area outside. Even when it's busy getting served wasn't a problem

Wow I love this place all the bar staff are lovely the manager Chris is good Jake Ben Morgan Sarah and claire really make this place I've come from Southampton but these guys make this place so friendly Food is good also feel at home here x thank you guys xxx

This is Wetherspoons in Abergavenny.

Had the fiesta breakfast will be back for another one

Great breakfast, great prices, lovely and warm.Will definitely be back 😋

Had chicken wings and a couple of Doombar's. Couldn't fault it. Service was very good too.

When we cam in we stood by the only empty table. I asked the waitress if she could clear the table for us, she said nothing and walked away. 2 tables left before she came, she cleared those 2 before she cam to us even though there was no one waiting to sit at them (2 seaters so we couldn't go sit at them tables, 4 of us), she finally came over cleared the table, wiped all the crap on the seats and left food at the back of the table by the menu's. Paid best part of a tenner for a pepsi max, 3 spoon fulls of rice (Lukewarm), 4 spoon fulls of beef madras (lukewarm), 2 soggy poppadoms and a cold naan. Considering it's a microwave meal I'd expect it to be at least the same portion size as a Tesco microwave curry. Wife paid extra for chips with her wrap and got 8 yes 8 chips. I know it's a weterspoons but it's a bit ridiculous now day's.

Very pleasant pub used to be an old cinema

Very disappointed that the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc was served warm. Unfortunately I had to ask for ice and then the manager, who served me had the audacity to say “that’ll spoil a good wine!” Spoil a good wine? I think you’ve managed that already, mate!! As if I actually want to drink ice in my wine?!!

It's OK but could do with a deep clean.

Quick service, good food, asked for extra serviettes only got 1!

me and mrs went in spoons abergavenny was going to have food we counted 8 tables of leftover dishes on the tables we walked back out it was sickening clean your tables

Good value, service at order point was slow due to lack of staff. Drinks were excellent but the steaks were quite poor. Team members were functional but not particularly friendly.

Regular at this venue. Always good food and good service, but whoever decided to reorganise the bar service today, should be fired. Long queues. One staff member would only serve drinks and spent most of his time serving on-line orders while, a young lady was totally overworked trying to keep up with customer demands at the bar. Only2 staff at the bar and the place was full

Called into Abergavenny on our way to West Wales to stay with family. Just wanted a quick lunch. Tables weren't particularly clean but we managed to find one that passed! Ordered on the app. Quick, friendly service. Drinks first and then food. Both plates were hot and the food was cooked well. Cheap and cheerful does us sometimes. Typical Wetherspoons though, not particularly clean and under staffed.

I don't like spaghetti in my ramen, but I do like beer

We visited here around 11.45 on a sunday and there was plenty of seating available. It was nice and clean and a comfortable, relaxing atmosphere. Ordered a panini with chips and chicken strips with chips which arrived within 10 minutes. The food was nice and warm, the portion size a little small but tasted great. The coffee machine area was a little messy and getting low on sugar, chocolate powder etc but the latte tasted great. Fantastic that the machine does decaff too. All in all a very pleasant visit.

Excellent fish and chips as always but it was very noisy and crowded

Had to clean the table myself as it was full of half eaten food and drinks. Pizza oven was apparently down? Had to ask for cutlery and serviettes. No air con, or it wasn't turned on as it was a very hot day. Disabled lift not working and had to watch a frail old lady be virtually carried up the stairs. Toilets were disgusting, clearly not been checked for hours. Worst Wetherspoons, I've had the misfortune of visiting.

Food was served cold/tepid needed a good clean disabled access was shocking customers with disabilities had to tackle 2 sets of stairs to use the restroom I had to come to aid of 1 person who fell down the bottom stairs reported to staff but unconcerned will never go there again

Good VFM nice breakfast and coffee

Very quiet. Usually picks up on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Very polite and chatty staff. Clearing tables as soon as they become vacant. Lovely location. Plenty of seating.

Always go to this place when in town.

Edible food with value for money drinks

We were quite rudely turned away just because we had a dog. Not even an offer to sit outside.

Gave on two stars for service because once served had no contact on both time we used it on our visit to the venue this week.

A great layout with the central booths and a lively atmosphere, but all let down by decidedly average food and a really poor selection of cask ale. The standard Riddles, Doom and Bishops spread over 6 of the 8 pumps. App shows no others beers “coming soon” and I can only presume this is your job lot… Com-on Tim sort this pub out to include some stouts and porters like every other Spoons!

Lovely food and friendly staff, would def recommend if you're in the area 👍

Lively atmosphere and very busy on arrival. However, we were served promptly at the bar and food was quick to arrive. Everyone was happy with the meals and empty plates all round. Only criticism was that the stair lift was broken and our elderly friend needed a lot of assistance to get upstairs. This needs to be rectified ASAP.

McDonald's size meals are very poor compared to what they used to be by the chain

Always know what you're getting with weatherspoons. Not a lot for not a lot, can't go wrong Interesting premises.

It is one of the better spoons in the area. Disabled stairlift out of use more than seems to be in use. Blocking the stairs. So it is worth checking before visiting if you have restricted mobility. Like most spoons, the toilets are downstairs from the bar area, which is up another set of stairs again. Toilets are usually pretty clean and well lit. It is cheap and cheerful on most items especially some larger and beers. Full English breakfast is about £6 and £1.56 for tea, coffee or hot chocolate with unlimited refills from the machines. Staff on a Saturday morning are normally polite. Outdoor seating is available in the main street which is pedestrians only or there is 3 or 4 tables on the small balcony mainly used as a small outdoor smoking area. High chairs are available for small children along with a children's menu and colouring activities. Menus are also available for different dietary requirements and a touch screen is available for this also. Regular festivals are available with cidre being promoted as the next one and real ale being the most recent one where you could try 3 1/3 pints for a special festival pint price.

Great staff, quick service with a smile

Always value for money parking always a problem but can cope with that

Really liked this Spoons. It's very airey & light & well appointed. It was an old cinema before being converted. I could have happily stayed here all day as it was so relaxing. We had the breakfast muffin deal with a cuppa which was lovely then headed to Pembroke Castle for the day.

Maybe the waiting staff should be told to wear clothes that don't show their bare behind and thong. Put me off my food

A nice little pub in the centre of the town

Typical Wetherspoons with good choice drinks and food sadly this time limited food choice due to lack of bread rolls🙈

Good price. Decent food. Was a small issue with the wrong pizza but sorted quickly. The guy who helped us was excellent and so nice. Made it a positive experience. I really like that they do the snacks with the kids meals which get brought over with the drinks. This ment my kids didn't complain whilst waiting (not long) for food. Great idea.

Very nice venue with very helpful staff

Great old building, now a converted Spoons and with a matching carpet. About 15 or 16 of us went and were well looked after. Thumbs up all around 👍

Dirty table asked twice for it to be wiped over never got cleaned, food order was wrong, then afters was cold had to send back, won't visit again, terrible service 😡

We were heading back to the midlands in England after a weekend jaunt in Wales and Abergavenny was our destination for breakfast on the way home. I must start by explaining the previous day we had been to Ebbw Vale, a place so stuck in the 1970s that it depressed us to the point of dashing out of the town as quickly as we could. The Wetherspoons there felt as tired as the town and so our hopes weren't high. Fortunately for us, The Coliseum was a much more agreeable affair. We arrived at just after 8am and took a seat. The staff were courteous and friendly and took our order for two traditional breakfasts with a smile. We sat and started our coffees, waiting only five or so minutes for the grub to arrive. And when it did, it was tasty stuff, hot cooked very nicely indeed, even the toast was toasted. A rare feat in a Wetherspoons. No complaints at all for us in Abergavenny, we enjoyed the visit greatly and were quite happy to dwell over the coffees. We left happy.

I will certainly be going back hear. The atmosphere was amazing. I even took my assistant dog, and their was no problem. The food was delicious 😋.

Nice place for a pint and food.

A smaller wetherspoons but good food and friendly staff.

Usually avoid like the plague, but a bank holiday and a grumbling stomach made us stop for lunch , was really surprised the burger was lovely , it's a pity the Witherspoon's guy is such an unlikeable character or he might have made a lot more money ..

Very busy..food edible...felt a little rushed

One of my favourite Wetherspoons. Nice atmosphere, quick service, good value, nice food.

Efficient service,polite staff, clean.

Food and drink offers great, only let down was some really gruff staff - obviously didn't want to be there, not very customer-friendly!!

Try the chicken wings with jack Daniels sauce. They're outstanding.

Your typical greasy spoons- cheap and 'cheerful'. I had the triple cheeseburger and side of onion rings, the burger left a lot to be desired, the pattes were over cooked (not to my liking) and I guess they'd left it standing under the hot plate as the bun seemed stale/dry (not 'toasted')- the best part was the side of onion rings. Room for improvement across the board, but it's okay for a Whetherspoons I suppose.

Ordered 4 meals one being Sirloin steak well done for my 15 year old daughter. On being delivered to the table the she cut into the steak that was over an inch thick and found it was extremely rare. We sent the steak back and the manager agreed that the steak was no where near well done and offered another one. We waited for the next steak to come out when it did the steak was much thinner than the first but was again still very rare with blood running from it on cutting. We sent it back and the manager in shock agreed again that this wasn't acceptable and he promptly offered a refund. The rest of the party had all finished our meals and my daughter left feeling like she didn't want anything more to eat. The experience turned her off food, which was the last thing we needed after only getting her eating full sized meals since Christmas. The rest of our meals were lovely 2 were jalfrezi but small portions.

Nice atmosphere where you can relax, eat and drink. Prices are very reasonable. Love the idea you pay for a cup of coffee or latte and have as much add you want.

Good atmosphere, great place to watch live sport

Always have a nice breakfast , lovely coffee, staff always friendly , clean toilets .

Great atmosphere, really friendly customers. Needs a bit of a clean mind, even the bar was sticky not just the carpets. Needs more professional and obsessive continually cleaning. Keep wiping down the bar

Not a bad full English Breakfast to be honest

They need to sort out their real ales. I had two different pints and they were like mud! They were warm too! Took them back! Also two old dears next to me had the fish - I could smell they were off and advised them not to eat it. They sent them back!

The high ceilings in this place are what bring me here as they make it feel light and airy which isn't typical of a 'spoons. Not sure you could get a lower priced breakfast - the staff were on hand, polite and helpful and we were served immediately.

Good food and it came quickly. Very helpful and friendly staff

Lovely Spoons, food fab & staff very friendly

Good food and reasonable priced and great service

Great value for money,big portions and excellent service.Would recomend.I can see why they are always so busy.

Good food friendly staff. Disabled access by chair lift.

Good food, Great atmosphere and friendly staff!

As always, Wetherspoons delivers on food. We had fish & chips and mushy peas. The batter was lovely and crispy and the fish was white. The chips were excellent as well. Where else can you get a good sized meal and drinks for just under £20.00 and know that it will be good value for money as well as good quality. It was also curry day and will be sampling this next time. Well done Wetherspoons.

It's a weatherspoons, cheap and cheerful

Excellent food well presented for pub food piping hot great value for money

The colliseum is the place to be the staff are friendly, the place is spotless and the food and drinks come out quick and fresh

Wonderful friendly staff, great atmosphere and would definitely recommend. we will be returning :)

Not a bad pub at all, not disabled friendly but it's a old town, with old building but hey how food was hot and company was lovely.

Food was decent and arrived quickly considering it was very busy.

Pleasant experience. Comfy and warm atmosphere.

Typical Weatherspoon, great value and large premises. This one was done up a couple of years ago that significantly improved the acoustics making it more comfortable. There is plenty of seating and they take plenty of precautions with regard to COVID-19. Can get busy and does not always have enough staff to maintain service. They have a good range of beers and always seem to be well kept when I go in there. Particularly enjoyed their curry deal on a Thursday, but be warned the Naga vindaloo packs a real heat punch.

Quite a nice Wetherspoons with the usual food but small selection of lower alcohol beers on tap. The food service was very slow for some reason - unusual for wetherspoons! But the big problem was the toilets - they absolutely stank and you have to walk past to get into the bar. It was even worse when I actually had to use the gents. Not acceptable!

Breakfast muffins were excellent, but a friend had the breakfast, I never do as I like HOT food. Good location in town centre, converted from an old cinema. The unlimited hot drinks are a bonus and not found anywhere else as far as I am aware.
